JOINT INDUSTRY BOARD
for the Electrical Contracting Industry

2004 and 1999 JIB TRAINING SCHEMES
2008 / 2009 / 2010 Wage Rates

Promulgated by the JIB National Board on the 13th September 2007 to be effective from the dates shown.

1. WAGE RATES

Two different wage rates apply to apprentices working on site, depending on whether the employer transports them to site, or whether they provide their own transport. The two categories are:

Job Employed (Transport Provided)

Payable to apprentices who are transported to and from the job by their employers. Apprentices travelling in their own time shall also be entitled to payment for Travelling Time, as detailed in the appropriate scale.

Job Employed (Own Transport)

Payable to apprentices who travel by their own means to and from the job. Apprentices under this category shall be entitled to payment for Travel Allowance and also, when travelling in their own time, to Travelling Time, as detailed in the appropriate scale.


There are separate rates to accommodate those apprentices who are employed permanently at the shop and who do not work on site. These rates are shown under Section 6 of this Determination.


It is acknowledged that the Union may wish to make representations to the Employers in the event that inflation, as measured by the CPI for January 2009 and January 2010, exceeds the level of increase set out under the terms of the JIB/SJIB Wage Agreement for these years.
